Explore Røros in 3 days and 2 nights

Take a little detour from Trondheim to Oslo and enjoy two nights in a traditional hotel at the Røros World Heritage Site. This charming, colorful town is a living museum. The entire historical Røros town centre, with its authentic wooden buildings, is specially protected as a landmarked site.

Located in the middle of Norway and only a little more than two hours from Trondheim, Røros is home to an active arts and crafts scene, factory outlets, quaint little shops and fine restaurants that serve local food made from seasonal produce.

Outdoor activities

The former mining town is surrounded by nature. With three national park sites around it, Røros is the ideal location for winter and summer outdoor activities, such as dog or reindeer sledging, fishing and riding.

Røros is particularly popular in the winter, with its crisp white snow and fresh frosty air: a sparkling white winter dream. After you disembark in Trondheim, the Hurtigruten shuttle bus takes you from the pier to Trondheim Railway Station. From there, you take a three-hour train ride through the Trøndelag region to Røros.

Explore Røros at your own pace

After arriving at Røros railway station, you’ll take short walk to Bergstadens Hotel, where you’ll be staying the night. The rest of the day is up to you: you can easily explore the town and surrounding areas on your own. The next day, you have breakfast at the hotel, then spend the day as you wish.

On the third and final day, you have breakfast at the hotel and then check out of your room. After a short walk to Røros railway station, you enjoy a five-hour train ride through the Norwegian landscape from Røros to Oslo Airport, or Oslo Central Station.
